Outsourced Warehousing for eCommerce
Storage, inventory and order preparation managed in Umbria
Umbria Hub provides outsourced warehousing for eCommerce businesses from its operating warehouse in Umbria, serving online retailers across the Italian market. We manage goods receiving, storage, inventory, picking, packing and handover for shipping, connecting the operational flow to the client's store. The focus is the physical and digital management of stock; to outsource the whole supply chain, explore our 3PL logistics service or end-to-end eCommerce logistics management.

Receiving and checks
Incoming goods are checked against the expected information before they are put away.
Inventory and locations
Items, movements and locations are recorded to keep physical stock aligned with operational availability.
Order preparation
Picking and packing follow the configured workflow, with orders dispatched within a maximum of 24 hours. Delivery across Italy takes 24–48 working hours with selected express couriers.
The service
Goods, locations and stock: the core of the warehouse
Receiving starts the physical cycle: quantities and integrity are checked against the agreed information and instructions. Items are then recorded and made available for assignment within the warehouse.
Before inbound, the characteristics relevant to handling are assessed: dimensions, weight, packaging, quantities, expected rotation and any requirements declared by the client. Feasibility is checked against the actual product rather than assuming that every type of goods follows the same process.
The physical layout separates storage areas from picking locations. Put-away takes account of item characteristics and rotation, while the WMS records movements to keep stock and operational availability visible.
When an order arrives, picking retrieves items from their assigned locations and packing prepares the parcel according to the configured workflow. Counts, discrepancy checks and reorder alerts support stock control over time.
Warehouse flow
From receiving to the picking area
The warehouse flow starts with the parcel or pallet actually delivered, not with the online order. Each stage prepares the next:
- 📦 Receiving — quantities and integrity checked against the agreed instructions
- 🏷️ Recording — items matched to product data and stock levels updated
- 🗂️ Put-away — goods assigned to storage areas according to physical characteristics and rotation
- 🛒 Preparation — the order is picked, checked and packed before shipping handover
Control continues through inventory counts, discrepancy analysis and availability updates.
